best year for GTP, 98-2002.

[L36pro]

im looking to trade my gt for a gtp. whats the best year for the gen 4 grand prix? i know that the 97 have a vacuum transmission so im staying away from that and the 4 door is just crap. any opinion?

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

98+ GTP's

find one owned by old people and with lower miles.

[matt5112]

you mean gen six?

If you seriously meant gen four then you're awesome for getting into a G body.

Note rocker rot is a terrible issue with those cars.

[L36pro]

no gen 4. theres the early generation 60's and up, then theres the g body, then the underpowered 90's, then the w body

[L36pro]

right?

If it's a GTP, the '97 models don't have vacuum transmissions. They have the 4T65-E HD.

But, I'll still vote for anything '98 or newer. Fewer electrical problems and a better PCM. (I'm making myself sad mine is a '97...)

Ideally, especially if you are going to be doing some major mods, '98-'00. '01 and newer seemed to be picky with certain things.

man i want a gtx

[L36pro]

what year did they stop the coupe?

[matt5112]

Pontiac Grand Prix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

the 97-03 is second generation W body, six gen grand prix.

the 04+ is third gen W body and seven gen grand prix.

coupe ended in 2002.

[L36pro]

ok. i was thinking it was gen 4. so any opinions as to which of the 98-02 gtp's is best? im not having a 4 door so 03 is dead to me

[L36pro]

which one is the best car to shoot for?

[matt5112]

Stop jumping from thread to thread.

[matt5112]

Wait for a response instead of making a new thread every time your question changes.

[BillBoost37]

There is no best year GTP. They are all GP's and therefore suck smell butt crack.

Regal FTW.

[nawarkk]

the 4 door is just crap.

uhh care to explain why?..

97 gtps had the same trans as the 98-02, the s/c just has different vacuum routings if I'm not mistaken.

03's come only in sedans, but come with a hardened 4th gear in the transmission.

I'd say 01-03. I haven't really had problems with mine mod wise (considering you're modding yours)

[matt5112]

03+ has the best stock transmission.

[Bio248]

merged your threads. knock it off.

[L36pro]

thanks bio 248. just did that cause i didnt know how to change title. btw, rude much? and the 97's have vacuum transmissions but the 98+ are electronically activated so thats why im not going for 97. and regals suck.

[Slick2500]

Um hes not being rude, its just common forum etiquette to not make multiple threads asking the same question you jackwagon. And bio is the tits bro. Hes only a dick to stupid people.

And the 97 GT's were the only ones with the 4T60-e the SE's had the 4T65-E and the GTP's had the 4T65-E HD. So only the GT's have a vacuum transmission, trust me I have a 97 GTP and its rocking the 4T65-E HD not a 4T60-E.

[L36pro]

allright jackwagon. well i wasnt asking the same question. i changed my question but didnt know how to change the title. so boost my rod 8=====>
